Release 2025.11

New features, enhancements and updates implemented by Payrexx with the release on November 11, 2025.

Various existing features have been optimized in this release. New Payment Methods and functions have also been introduced. The following points provide an overview of all the new features.

New Features

New payment method VERD (external payment provider)

Payrexx now exclusively supports the new VERD.cash payment method for online payments. This is a Swiss prepaid card that customers can use to pay online just like a normal debit or credit card.

The new payment method combines low fees for merchants with social added value for customers, as part of the transaction fees are invested in charitable projects in Switzerland. There are also no additional third-party fees for using VERD with Payrexx.

Transaction fees:

• 0.85 % for all VERD payments

• 0.6 % for payments via QR Pay

You can easily activate the new payment method in your Payrexx account under Payment Providers > Alternative Payment Methods and create an account with VERD.

Filter transactions by payment method

In the transaction overview, transactions can now also be filtered by payment method. This makes it easier to evaluate and manage payments, as merchants can search specifically for certain payment types and thus gain a quick overview of the respective transactions. This saves time during analysis and simplifies the accounting of the payment methods used.

Refunds with PayPal possible directly in Payrexx

From now on, refunds for transactions processed via the external payment provider PayPal can be made directly in the Payrexx transaction overview.

This enhancement makes it much easier to manage PayPal payments: refunds no longer have to be processed manually via the PayPal account, but can be conveniently triggered centrally in Payrexx.

The refund can be initiated in the transaction detail view of the desired PayPal payment:

Copies of invoices to additional recipients

It is now possible to define additional recipients for sending invoices via the Invoice Tool, who will each receive a copy of all invoices sent.

This means that invoices can be sent automatically not only to the main contact person, but also to other internal or external parties (e.g. accounting, administration or partners). This ensures greater transparency, better collaboration and more efficient payment processes without the need to forward emails manually.

The new feature can be configured under Settings > Notifications for the Invoice Tool:

Optimizations

Improved handling of value added tax for subscriptions

When you change the VAT rate for a product, it is now automatically applied to all associated subscriptions. This eliminates the need to manually adjust the VAT in each subscription or via API.

Specifically, this means:

• Automatic VAT adjustment for products with subscriptions: If you change the VAT rate for a product that is used for ongoing subscriptions, the VAT in these subscriptions will now also be updated correctly.

• Correct update via API: The VAT for a product can now be changed via the API, and this change will affect existing subscriptions.

• Error message in case of conflicts: If a change cannot be made directly in the subscription (e.g. because several subscriptions use the same product), the system displays a helpful error message. This indicates that the change must be made via the product, as it would otherwise affect other subscriptions.

Language in payment gateway is automatically transferred

From now on, a language can be explicitly specified for payment gateways created via the API. This means that the payment page is automatically displayed in the correct language, regardless of the buyer's browser settings.

Previously, the language of the payment page was set to the default language in the browser. This could lead to confusion if, for example, German was selected in the online shop but the payment page was displayed in English due to English browser settings.

With the new feature, the desired language can be specified directly when creating the gateway link via the API, ensuring that the payment process remains consistent and user-friendly for customers.

To set this up, simply configure the "language" parameter in the API. Detailed instructions can be found in our developers documentation

Plugins

Display name of the CembraPay payment method adjusted

In the Payrexx plugins, the standard display name of the CembraPay payment method has been changed. The new name is "Purchase on account (CembraPay)" instead of just "CembraPay". This is how it is displayed on the payment page.

This change affects the default configuration when installing all shop plugins. Retailers can still customise the name of the payment method individually in the plugin (see example in Magento).

Payrexx Magento plugin now compatible with Hyvä

The Magento Plugin is now compatible with the Hyvä theme.

Hyvä is a modern design template for Magento that enables faster loading times and easier customisation. Merchants who use their Magento shop system with Hyvä can seamlessly integrate Payrexx and use all payment functions as usual.

This makes using Payrexx in modern, high-performance Magento shops even easier and more flexible.
